ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

KEEP THIS AND ALL DRUGS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN

BEFORE you use IMODIUM® talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you:

Are pregnant or nursing a baby. IMODIUM® is not recommended for nursing mothers because small amounts of loperamide can end up in your milk;

Have meningitis or liver disease, as you may need medical supervision while taking IMODIUM®.

STOP USE and see your doctor or pharmacist if:

Diarrhea gets worse, lasts longer than 48 hours, or you get any unusual symptoms;

You are infected with HIV and you have any signs of abdominal swelling or bulging.

Although IMODIUM® stops diarrhea, it will not treat the cause of it. Whenever possible, the cause of diarrhea should also be treated.

Tiredness, dizziness, or drowsiness may occur in the setting of diarrheal symptoms treated with loperamide. Therefore, it is advisable to use caution when driving a car or operating machinery.

Taking more than directed may cause serious heart problems leading to death.

ADDITIONAL DIRECTIONS FOR USE

IMODIUM® should be taken by the mouth. You can take IMODIUM® at any time of day. The Quick Dissolve tablet is a fast-dissolving tablet which can be taken without fluid. The tablet disintegrates within seconds on the surface of the tongue and is then swallowed with the saliva. The Quick Dissolve tablets should not be pushed through the blister, as this would damage them. To take the tablets out of the blister, pull up the edge of the foil, tear the foil completely off, press out and then remove the tablet.

A perfect solution

Review Text:

These little pills are the miracle solution to my son's digestive needs. He doesn't need them all that often, but he is a young man with intellectual disabilities, and sometimes his choice of foods is, at best, "iffy." When he gets diarrhea it's close to a national incident because he just doesn't quite understand what's happening, or what needs to be done. Slip him one of these pills, though, and everything calms down...crisis diverted. Unfortunately, I can't find them anywhere anymore. No one sells them around me or online. And my son will not swallow a pill--if it goes in his mouth, he has to chew it. Liquids are spit out. So you can see why this was such a godsend to us. But, alas, no more. WHY WHY WHY are these unavailable????
